BIG FLUFFY DOG posted:not sure but i think its a violation of international law to try to control airspace like that for civilian or commercial aircraft. its technically an international area. Article I of the Chicago convention recognizes “complete and exclusive sovereignty over the airspace above it’s territory.” First freedom is not absolute. You’re correct that you can’t ban civil traffic over international waters, but you can damned well deny them air traffic control services, which is an effective ban for basically any air carrier in existence.

Can someone explain why this is a bigger deal than Russia's war with Georgia? It's the same thing, right, separatist regions, Russia goes in to support them, then goes further and invades the rest of the country. So why are people freaking out way more now?

It's bigger, more importantly Russia's goals go beyond capturing separatist regions, hey want to do a full regime change and exterminate all their "enemies". The scale is also on an entiely different level, in Georgia they weren't sending armored columns and paratroopers to ake over Tbilisi and murder Sakashvilli.

Well, it's in the other direction firstly. Second, Ukraine is much bigger and has/had a functional European-style democracy with a semi-serious discussion about joining NATO. They are also, ostensibly, a US ally. Georgia was barely more than a Russian satellite rebublic.

One major difference is that with Georgia Putin never went on a giant meltdown about Georgians being invented by Bolsheviks and requiring "denazification", and similarly threatening rhetoric towards the West. Other than that, grander scale of things, and the age of social media/profiteering news companies.

Has it occurred to you that Putin is flatout loving lying about his justifications? Putin has given like 10 reasons why he ordered the invasion, none of which stand up to anything more than academic scrutiny.

Kaal posted:Johnson spent much of last month fending off a no confidence vote due to his COVID party scandal, so I'm sure he's eager to get in front of some fresh news. Saw someone say that while Johnson has been pretty friendly with the oligarchs' interests, he's also has a long and consistent history of throwing former allies under the bus to save his own skin. And his skin is in need of saving right now.

A loving defensive alliance is not to blame for Putin's bloodlust for Ukranian territory or his revisionist thoughts on Lenin being a Nazi. He's just a fascist who wants Greater Russia, that's it No NATO did not do this, no there is no defending Putin, and Russia is at this point probably the most dangerous state actor on Earth, and NATO is very much showing why it exists right now. Hope this helps clarify some things.

Unless you mean if Ukraine was a NATO country this wouldn't have happened, which is pretty hypothetical and also terrifying.
